what sorta head unit you got?

I recently fitted Bluetooth in my golf, and its brilliant. It allows you to stream music and im pretty sure it lets you stream most things (will confirm this).
And you get handsfree as a brucie-bonus.

the Bluetooth really comes into play for the rcd510 and rns510.

Cost me 160 off the bay for a 730f kit. A fair hit, but well worth it in my opinion.

Although you can buy aux input kits aswell for around 30quid.

Here's a shot I took on my lunch break.

Don't think my head unit will be compatable with Bluetooth then... Does look good, might have to go with the AUX kit... :smiley:
